"System, I want to challenge Xu Fu."
At this mont, Qing Yu's face carried an intense sharpness, and a montum that seed unstoppable.
Previously, he thought that Dragon Essence would grant him longevity, rendering his style sowhat conservative, unlike the forr aggressiveness he displayed in the Divine Origin Realm.
Now that he knew the life-extending effect of Dragon Essence was limited at this stage, Qing Yu naturally had to change his mindset.
"True Pill Realm trial, initiating..."
A familiar blur before his eyes, and Qing Yu found himself in a place of extre cold.
His vision revealed nothing but ice, surrounded further by a chilling fog.
The source of this chilling fog was a statue crafted from ice. Within this statue, one could vaguely make out a person sitting cross-legged.
Here was the Heavenly Gate, and the figure within the statue was Emperor Shitian.
"Mortal, why do you not kneel before a god?" a deep and authoritative voice demanded from within the ice sculpture.
"This..."
Qing Yu scoffed, and his figure suddenly appeared in front of the ice sculpture, releasing a fierce and dominating Fierce Yang Gang Qi that struck the sculpture violently, "Because the mortal has co to slay a god."
The Extre Ice was lted by the Fierce Yang Gang Qi, turning into mist and revealing inside the middle-aged man in a yellow robe with white hair.
"How insolent."
Emperor Shitian suddenly opened his eyes, a piercing cold glare shooting out like sharp swords, aiming directly at Qing Yu's eyes.
Shock Eye Tribulation.
This technique was an extrely sophisticated thod of using one's gaze to overpower the opponent's spirit, dominating their will and securing victory in an instant.
However, this technique had a flaw—
It was useless against the powerful.
Qing Yu raised both palms, eting the fierce strike that ca similarly from the opposing palms.
The Shock Eye Tribulation was a thod used against the weaker foes, fully displaying the prowess and capacity of the powerful. At the end of it all, it was nothing more than an oppression by the strong against the weak. If used against an equally strong warrior, it could only catch them off-guard briefly, causing a slight lapse in concentration.
Against soone skilled in the thod of Mind Power like Qing Yu, the Shock Eye Tribulation was utterly ineffective.
"Boom—"
Moisture filled the air, and the collision of fiery heat and intense cold created opposing Qi Forces, causing the temperature to fluctuate unpredictably as their energy burst chaotically.
"You..."
Emperor Shitian could feel, within his adversary, a similar presence of mythical beast essence, but compared to his own Phoenix Blood, the essence inside Qing Yu seed hidden, almost as if it didn't exist.
This was the difference between refined and unrefined. Once Dragon Essence was refined, it beca Qing Yu's own power, with the original essence becoming nearly undetectable. Over ti, the essence of Dragon Essence would completely fade, leaving no one the wiser that Qing Yu had ever absorbed Dragon Essence.
"This is Dragon Essence!"
Emperor Shitian's palms surged with chilling energy, pressing back against Qing Yu.
He had coveted the Dragon Essence for countless years, and was extrely familiar with the essence of the dragons. Now sensing the lingering traces on Qing Yu, he imdiately recognized it.
"Xuanbing Technique."
In the Holy Heart Four Extres, the Xuanbing Technique erupted with a Heaven-shocking cold aura, overpowering the Fierce Yang Gang Qi as frost spread across the ground, seeking to encase Qing Yu in ice.
"Tsks, as expected, it's not that simple."
In the original text, Bu Jingyun, with the power of a Dragon Essence, had forcefully crushed the spirit of Emperor Shitian with Furious Wind and Thunder all at once. But true to form, at that ti, Emperor Shitian seed utterly incompetent, as if he had forgotten all his Martial Arts, and was even deeply wary of the Supre Sword.
Co on, if the Supre Sword was really that amazing, why didn't Bu Jingyun just kill Xiong Ba on his own back then?
Now that Qingyu Zhen was facing Emperor Shitian in person, there was no Lao Ma to dumb down Emperor Shitian's intelligence or strength. He was up against an undiminished Emperor Shitian at the peak of his power.
One-seventh of the Dragon Essence was clearly not as effective as complete Phoenix Blood and a millennium of power.
However fortunately, Qing Yu's reliance had never been on the Dragon Essence. Dragon Essence was rely a tool, and also a bait...
With both hands together, he ford them into a sword, and a sinister green Sword Qi was unleashed, filling the icy cave with a fierce Sword Intent.
Xuanyin Twelve Swords·Heaven and Earth Only I.
The Sword Qi was arrogantly ominous, like a venomous snake striking swiftly, instantly shattering the encroaching frost and directly hurtling towards Emperor Shitian.
At this point, Qing Yu's power had reached the peak of the True Pill Realm, and due to the absorption of Dragon Essence, his power had surged imnsely, bolstered tenfold by the Earth Dominating Technique, making him comparable to the Divinity Realm. Although he could not match a true Divinity in so aspects, he was capable of unleashing sixty to seventy percent of the true might of the Xuanyin Sword Energy.
In fact, had he not peeled off the Sword Qi, he could have directly overpowered Emperor Shitian with the formidable strength of the Xuanyin Su Sword, instead of still having to fight further.
The ominous nature of the Xuanyin Sword Energy made even a millennium-old monster like Emperor Shitian wary. He sidestepped a few tis, seemingly strolling leisurely, but actually moving as if shrinking the ground into inches, instantly appearing at the other end of the icy cave.
This was the "Vertical Intent Ascension Step," enveloping the body with True Qi, displacing the air. His speed exceeded the speed of sound, yet it didn't create sonic booms or even a gust of wind.
Emperor Shitian, avoiding this, flipped his palm, and a surge of cold air ford a massive ice sphere in his hand, which he hurled towards Qing Yu.
Next, Emperor Shitian pointed from a distance, and the ice sphere suddenly exploded, sending countless ice shards flying in every direction.
Emperor Sky Wild Thunder.
Like a rain of ice, these shards carried trendous impact force, striking against a layer of sinister green Sword Qi Armor and bursting into nurous ice fragnts.
"Xu Fu, is this all you've got? Such tricks cannot break through my Xuanyin Sword Armor."
Qing Yu stood hands behind his back within the encircling Xuanyin Sword Armor, his eyes filled with a mocking smile.
Emperor Shitian, although not having wasted his Martial Arts skills over a millennium, was not very talented in Martial Arts personally and preferred to bully the weak, so many of his Martial Arts were designed to oppress the less powerful and lacked real lethality.
Simply put, they were flashy but not practical.
"Youngster, you have truly angered now..."
Rage uncontrollably appeared in Emperor Shitian's eyes, which always carried an arrogant hue. Fire Power faintly erged on his body, and the sound of Phoenix song echoed mysteriously in the air.
In the next instant, Qing Yu's Heavenly Son's Qi Observation Skill saw a fierce Phoenix Fire appearing on Emperor Shitian's body, synergizing with the Holy Heart Technique's Xuanbing Power to form a harmonious yet destructive circle.
"Water and fire synergize, can soone tell how this off-the-charts power ca to be?"
In the original text, Emperor Shitian, who always used the Holy Heart Technique, unexpectedly still had a hidden move, possessing Phoenix Blood Fire Power that could form a perfect cycle with the Holy Heart Technique Xuanbing, unleashing great might.
"Youngster, if it were not for the trace of Dragon Essence on you, I wouldn't have used this move that depletes Phoenix Blood. Using it, I will age by at least twenty years. But..."
A cold light burst forth from Emperor Shitian's eyes, an invisible deterrence chilling to the core, "It's no longer necessary, as long as I devour the Dragon Essence within your body, I will no longer have to fear the ravages of ti."
"Give it to now!"
Before the words were finished, Emperor Shitian had already appeared before him, with ice and fire fiercely colliding upon the Xuanyin Sword Armor.
